Accent--uate the Positive.

I do a mean east Indian accent, a funny ghetto dialect, and some decent English and Southern as well, but after taking a quiz I found on Stephen's blog (which he got from another blog, and so on and so on), I learned that I have an accent even when speaking in my regular voice.


What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Inland North

You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

The Midland
The Northeast

The South

Evidently I have a Midland accent, which I find strange, never having been to the Midlands. West came up second. Nope, visited once for a week, but that's it. South was in third place, and sure enough that's where I am.
Interesting quiz. :)

You mean I have less of an accent than you do?!? That can't be right!!!
